Great month volume-wise. Not so great money-wise, but i like the fact that making $2k including rakeback feels like I underperformed.

Made the switch from 200nl FR to 200nl 6max which explains a lot of the variance in the graph. :eek: I like it a lot, so i'll probably be playing more 6max in July.

Goals for next month is just to play good poker and enjoy. And clear the $600 mid year bonus on FTP, of course. I have vague plans for playing 400nl and trying out $5/$10 cap nl, but probably only if i see really good tables.

June summary:
failed 50nl shot
grind 25nl
failed 50 shot
grind 25nl
Rinse and repeat until you find your self beeing a bum and playing super low volume and tourneys= break even.

Well I switched computers and then tracking programs so I don't have it all together to graph...but I found a remarkably accurate representation. I was +150 first 4k, trailed off a little before a nice heater, then fell apart at the end. This is just micro nlhe, been playing some other games past week or so...

Basically I had one super-spewy session on June 1, then didn't play enough to make up for it. That line at the top? That's $0, heh.

After rakeback I'm on the positive side for the month -- barely.

July goal: DON'T DO THAT.

I know this is a timeline graph but it still shows my earnings (I had to crop it twice to be able to show only the month of June).

I obviously don't have a PT3 or HeM graph or I would use it...

June 1st - June 30th
PTR-6-30-09-5-1.jpg
PTR-6-30-09-1-1.jpg


$34 of Earnings come from:

6k hands in $2NL FR (99% of what I'm currently playing daily).

100 hands in $10NL FR

50 hands in $25NL FR

---------------------------------------------------------------------

My goals for July are as follows:

1. Stick to my game plan, don't get overconfident & have fun playing.

2. Earn another $30-$50 & then move up levels to stay for awhile.

3. Get a PT3 or HeM graph going.

GL in July every1 :top:

[ ] volume
[X] maneys

shoulda woulda coulda been a 3k month but w/e. Probably close to 4k actually including rakeback + tourny winnings

Easy aims:
hit top vip level
make 5k pure cash profit without rakeback
dabble in 200nl

Very nice Switch.

Well my month can be summed up by:

Things went well at 50nl > move upto 100nl, things went well, then they didnt > move down to 50nl, things went well, then they didn't.

Summary: 51k hands, $500 profit + $7-800 in rakeback + bonuses = ok month for a change!

Lol ,Progress on the Ferguson challenge

Um...not much, I've won like 5 freerolls in the last month or so with fields of 180 to 550, and take the points, but not quite placeing in the ppay out margin when it comes to further steps. I did make it all the way from step 1 to step 8 on the Absolute poker challenge before it stopped though

Less than 10K hands, retained my VIP level on I-Poker with is worth another $150 or so, shitty month, but breakeven. AA lost me over $600 though, so with bonus money +$300. If AA was showing profit i might have played more.

Live games again a different story. Well over $1,000 again, so a half decent month.

my month was real dumb and not graph-worthy, played like 18k hands mixture of 100NL and 200NL FR, +$700 not counting bonuses etc. just never got anything resembling a decent run. played the biggest pot of my career but lost as a 4:1 favorite so that was cool

good thing switch is awesome though!

july goal: telepathically help switch continue owning, possibly play some poker myself

Wow, was that huge drop at 25nl? Talk about tilt :p

That was a little over 4 buy-ins dropped at 50NL on six tables over a period of 5-1/2 hours, then moving down to 25NL and losing another 4 buy-ins on four tables there over the next 2-1/2 hours. Then a few smaller losing sessions during the next few days.

The big dump involved a lot of big hands running into bigger hands (e.g. turned nut flush down in flames to quads made on the river), plus some spots where I could have saved big losses but simply overplayed what I had (e.g. top pair, good kicker or an overpair to the board).

This came directly on the heels of a 4-figure winning month so I probably thought cash games were just a money farm and wasn't being careful enough. :eek: Or maybe just variance biting me in the ass for posting that pretty graph in May.

Ok so June sucks for poker for me! Vegas was good..... I was playing live and seem to play so much better when I'm live! Come home, make a deposit (small $100 on UB) and as shown above, lose it all within 2 hours! So here are my goals for July:
- Freshen up on my play! Play in a few good tournaments/cash sessions with my VERY limited bankroll.
- Read some more and study some more... probably play around with the FullTilt Academy sessions.
- Get ready for August.... I know its a month away, but there will probably be NO poker in August as I will be deploying Microsoft Exchange in my organization (our home office, plus 2 remote offices). The whole month is going to SUCK! Plus I can't make any more deposits until we get back from Pigeon Forge in September! Then I'm making a $1000+ deposit and getting as serious as a heart attack! I'm done playing around.... If this is what I want to do for a career, I need to stop making stupid mistakes and bad calls!

Allow me to be the first to say that if you're playing 2/4 limit with a $100 roll, you're underrolled and variance will wipe you out more often than not.

I agree I am underrolled....however $2/$4 Limit is or was my game.... I can play this game live all day and make $$$.... I always buy into a $2/$4 Limit game with anywhere from $40 - $150. I just didn't expect to sit down and lose it all that quickly...... I went over my hand history and every hand I lost by somebody hitting their card on the river or set over set, two pair over two pair sort of ordeal. Regarless of bad play, poor choices or any of that matter I think I need to rethink my entire BRM no matter if it is FL or NL, along with my game plan.......

2-4 live =/= 2-4 online
